Interesting build, it's got the most new features of any build to date in the Creators Update path and probably close to feature complete. The big thing that most around here will probably be the new options to delay updater and turn off driver updates. But only fa the Pro, Education and Enterprise versions do I'm sure that will receive a lot of complaints. However if one is on the Pro version, these options should take care of the majority of the complaints I've noticed. No turning off updates permanently, but a 35 day delay provides a good amount of time to address bad updates and get fixes out before the next 35 days.

As for the other big issue beyond updating, I've not seen anything on telemetry changes. Insider Builds don't allow any of that to be changed so there'd be little to see there if it did but no mention in the release notes anyway. The biggest thing I like, the Start Menu finally has the foldering system that Windows Phone 8.1 had years ago. I know there are the tile haters but you can put an LOT of tiles in a compact space now and they expand out when the group is clicked. No way to nest the folders though.

So nothing here that would probably change too many minds about 10 though the updating changes for Pro and above will probably make some happier.

I'm not selling Windows 10 Home anymore if I can't disable driver updates simply and easily, for the minuscule difference I'll just sell all my clients Professional.

Why they chose to remove an option that should be present in any operating system is just beyond my comprehension. Before the anniversary update the option to disable driver updates was present in Professional, I remember doing it, did they just bring it back?

That explains why I got a pop-up on my shop rig asking politely to reboot for an update or delay or wait until after-hours.

But it still left the only options in the start menu as "Reboot and Update" and "Shutdown and Update" - which is my biggest complaint.

Do you get normal reboot/shutdown options when you choose to delay? I didn't check my build version, so it's possible I'm on an in-between one that doesn't have it complete.

P.S. completely disabled WU on my main rig and it has been so much more tolerable.

So no updates whatsoever? Even OS updates?
